Lovely hotel

Excellent hotel, well located under the city walls for easy access to the Old City Centre, beautiful views over the river. Skybar for meals and drinks with a view. Limited breakfast and dinner menu but all food fresh and beautifully presented. Staff very welcoming and helpful. Will return

10/10 Exceptional

Our fourth stay at this hotel and it was excellent as always. Daily housekeeping, friendly and helpful staff (especially Bart on reception) and a really good choice at breakfast and on the evening menu. The hotel is ideally located for shopping and sightseeing and we will definitely be back next December.

Fantastic Hotel

We stayed here for 3 nights and loved this hotel. Amazing views over the river and right next to the castle so location was great. The rooftop bar was lovely and we had all our main meals up there. The pizzas were delicious. All staff were friendly, helpful and excellent. We’ll be back!

Krakow - Simply Brilliant

Lovely hotel, staff are brilliant and so helpful. Bart on reception will do anything for a greggs sausage roll or steak bake 😂. He provided recommendations that were all brilliant from food to cocktail bars he certainly knows his stuff. Rooftop terrace staff could do with smiling a little more but thats about it. Location is perfect just a little walk into the old town (flat no huge hills), overlooking the Vistula river and rooms lovely and clean with lovely sauna (spa under construction). Rooms were clean, tidy and we had great room with view over the city and the river. Very hospitable country and worth the trip to anyone that is remotely interested in culture, cocktails, gastronomy or anything at all really.

Great hotel and location

The hotel is great location overlooking river. Very friendly and helpful staff. Clean and tidy. We had welcome drink on rooftop bar which has great views. Around 20-25 minutes walk to centre square. Boat trips on river 3 minutes walk. Will definitely stop here again when we return to Krakow.
